    OBAMA SUBMITS CORPORATE BONUS LAW TO CONGRESS – In a stunning move to prevent greedy corporate hustlers taking home multi-million dollar bonus packages when corporations fail Obama stated,

    “This will require companies to put in contracts of corporate officers, that failure to perform in the event of progressing company profits and goals and thus receiving a bonus will result in the company being fined at three times the amount of the bonus per day until the bonus is paid back (after fact finding trial.) This would also require the SEC to ban the company from public trading for a minimum of one year and that stocks will be taken over by a government panel until said time reveal that the company can be responsible. Chairman Mao Tse Kommie was the originator of the bill.
